Mounting by users

Hi,

In my suse 6.4 I'm trying to make users able to mount the HD of a samba client from a samba server. So I have
added a line to /etc/fstab like this

//blabla/bla	/here    smbfs    noauto,user,pasword=bla  0  0

Root can mount with only 'mount /here' but the first time I tried this users get a message like this:

smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (500,500)
smbmnt failed: 1
mount.smbfs: ioctl failed, res=-1

I have changed smbmnt to suid. But now I get this

smbmnt failed: 1
mount.smbfs: ioctl failed, res=-1

What can I do?

Thanks
